1 videos • 0 views • by LiveHealthyTube - LHT The digestive system is a complex network of organs that work together to convert food into energy and nutrients for the body. Here’s a brief overview of its main components and their functions: - Mouth: Begins the process by chewing food and mixing it with saliva. - Esophagus: Transports food from the mouth to the stomach. - Stomach: Breaks down food using stomach acid and enzymes. - Small Intestine: The primary site for digestion and nutrient absorption. - Large Intestine: Absorbs water and forms waste (stool). - Liver, Gallbladder, and Pancreas: Produce digestive juices and enzymes that aid in digestion in the small intestine.
